Volvo has introduced the XC90 T8 Inscription which is the standard, top-of-the-line seven-seat XC90 with a hybrid engine. The car’s ‘Twin Engine’ setup features a 2.0-litre, turbocharged and supercharged four-cylinder petrol engine that together make 320hp and these are paired to an 87hp electric motor.

Total output stands at 407hp and 400Nm and power is channelled via an eight-speed automatic gearbox. The engines power the front wheels and the electric motor powers the rear. The car offers an all-electric range of 40km.
